As much as resolutions might intimidate us, the new year brings opportunities for change. In 2015, we are all thinking about food, nutrition, and the affect of our lives on the environment. But the reality is that change isn’t always easy. That’s why the asset of a farmers market in your community is so valuable. By bringing farmers and food artisans to your neighborhood, the market helps make new choices and best intentions attainable.

This year at Lone Star Farmers Market our goal is to make it easy, sensible, and fun to buy food that is healthy and sustainable and good for small business. We’re also providing a wonderful way for you to spend time with friends and family, and meet the people who bring all the bounty to you. Sundays at the market are the perfect opportunity to carve out time, slow things down and enjoy a new way of shopping, eating, cooking…even living.

We wish you the best this year, and will work to bring you the best of what our region has to offer! Watch this newsletter to stay informed of what’s happening at the market this year. ~ Gina Harlow of Peaches and Prosciutto
